2. Solar cell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_cell

   [citation needed] There are multiple input factors that affect the output power of solar cells such as temperature, material properties, weather conditions, solar irradiance and more. [4] The first instance of photovoltaic cells within vehicular applications was around midway through the second half of the 1900's.

3. Solar cell research - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_cell_research

   Flexible solar cell research is a research-level technology, an example of which was created at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in which solar cells are manufactured by depositing photovoltaic material on flexible substrates, such as ordinary paper, using chemical vapor deposition technology. [22]

4. Photovoltaics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaics

   Photovoltaics are best known as a method for generating electric power by using solar cells to convert energy from the sun into a flow of electrons by the photovoltaic effect. [15] [16] Solar cells produce direct current electricity from sunlight which can be used to power equipment or to recharge batteries.

5. Solar panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_panel

   Solar cells are often classified into so-called generations based on the active (sunlight-absorbing) layers used to produce them, with the most well-established or first-generation solar cells being made of single- or multi-crystalline silicon. This is the dominant technology currently used in most solar PV systems.

6. Solar power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power

   A community solar project is a solar power installation that accepts capital from and provides output credit and tax benefits to multiple customers, including individuals, businesses, nonprofits, and other investors. Participants typically invest in or subscribe to a certain kW capacity or kWh generation of remote electrical production.

7. Solar energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_energy

   [1] [2] [3] It is an essential source of renewable energy, and its technologies are broadly characterized as either passive solar or active solar depending on how they capture and distribute solar energy or convert it into solar power. Active solar techniques include the use of photovoltaic systems, concentrated solar power, and solar water ...
